Riddles & Rhymes

You said you loved me
But wasn’t I stupid sometimes
Warm on the outside
But cold as an ice wind inside
With thoughts held so deep
Even I cannot sleep ‘til I find
The root of the cause
But I’m left without reason or rhyme

Where are you now?
It’s torn me apart
I give you the words that I should’ve said more
I listen so hard to find
Is there any love behind riddles and rhymes?
And we’re lost in time

Three words are easy
Believing them’s harder to do
Simple affection, a shield from the obvious truth
It’s simple to see
That these words are not all that they seem
It’s time to admit that we looked
So much better in dreams

Where are you now?
It’s torn me apart
I give you the words that I should’ve said more
I listen so hard to find
Is there any love behind riddles and rhymes?
And we’re lost in time

And still it comes down to
The feelings we had from the start
When you’re in my mind
All the heartache is gone for a time

Where are you now?
It’s torn me apart
I give you the words that I should’ve said more
I listen so hard to find
Is there any love behind riddles and rhymes?
And we’re lost in time
